Amazing displays of ignoranceSandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

SadlyI get this all too often.
Mainly at the council. Recently they couldn't get it into their heads that I'd moved house - despite me phoning them to let them know.
Eventually, after 9 letters, 3 emails and a letter from my MP, I get a letter from them that I simply just cannot understand; I don't think it's English, but there is a smattering of English words in it.
I phoned once again, and after about 30 mins I just gave up. The woman just could not understand why I hadn't paid 300 quid a month, instead of the amount I was supposed to, despite never having had a bill from them.
It's still going on now - I have a court date soon to explain why I haven't paid council tax. I just hope the judge has more common sense than the people enforcing these laws.
